Calco Stoba (Aruban Conch Stew)

Calco Stoba, or conch stew, is most often associated with the nation of Aruba. With tender conch meat, typically added at the end of the cooking process, as the central ingredient to this stoba, the light but savory base is built from tomatoes, chicken bouillon, and onions. Think “Manhattan Clam Chowder” but with a Caribbean twist using conch meat instead of clams.
